A successful budget development cycle begins with clearly communicated expectations and coherently executed leadership. You must partner with other leaders to minimize conflict, meet senior leader guidance, and deliver a budget plan that is on target and makes sense. Ensure you apply the strategy to the budget development process to prioritize and maximize the committed resources.

Episode outline:

  1. Link the budget requirements to the strategy,
  2. Communicate expectations early, clearly, and often,
  3. Ensure your budgeting tools meet your needs,
  4. Have a conflict resolution process in place, and
  5. Develop an effective partnership across the company.
